    This is great.
    Reactions Faster than Actions, Study Finds | LiveScience
    In laboratory versions of gunfights, the researchers had volunteers each press a row of three buttons. When they faced off against other "gunslingers" — either people directly across from them, people in another room, or computers — the volunteers on average were roughly 10 percent faster when they reacted than when they initiated "shootouts," a boost in speed of roughly 21 milliseconds they dubbed "the reactive advantage."

    Interesting, but 21ms isn't significant. I'd chalk it up to margin of error, truth be told. Even if it's not, it's not enough of a margin of error that I'd bet on it.

    Did they have that theme from "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" playing in the background? I would think that might make a difference.

    Very unlikely to be significant. Would have to be a very powerful study to have a real difference of that small anyways.
